History of mercury observation

~ 3000 B.C: First known evidence of Mercury

  • bservations by sumerian priests in

mesopotamia. Planet known as Ubu-idim-gud-ud

Ziggurat of Ur

~ 1000 B.C: Detailed recordings of Mercury

  • bservations by babylonian

astronomers Planet known as Nabu or Nebu, referring to the babylonian messenger of gods, due to its swift movement and partial visibility.

Babylonian record

  • f Venus observation

History of Mercury observation

~ 500 B.C: Greek astronomers give Mercury two names, Stilbon and Hermaon, depending whether it is visible in the morning or evening. Pythagoras

  • f Samos proposes that the two
  • bservations refer to a common

body, which is then called Hermes, after the greek messenger of gods, which is later identified with the roman god Mercury. In roman/greek mythology, Mercury is not

  • nly the messenger of gods and the god of

travellers, but also the god of merchants,

  • f crooks, liars and highwaymen.

History of Mercury observation

Mercury in the staircase fresco by Gianbattista Tiepolo at the Wuerzburg residence (18th century).

Always displayed with the winged herlad’s staff wound by two snakes (caducaeus), winged sandals (talaria) and winged traveller’s hat (petasos), which inspired the astronomical symbol for Mercury:

Engl.: Merchant Commerce Mercury (Hg) Mercenary Wednesday

Rarely displayed alone, but either participating on assemblies of gods (mostly just arriving or leaving) or while delivering a message to a

  • recipient. Is also said to explain the

somewhat obscure messages of the gods to the mortals.

French: Merci Mercredi

History of mercury observation

~ 1610: First telescopic observations of Mercury by Galileo Galilei 1631: The Mercury transit predicted by Johannes Kepler is observed by Pierre Gassendi, which is the first known observation of a planetary transit. 1639: Giovanni Zulpi discovers Mercury’s phases by telescopic observation, which proves that mercury orbits around the sun. 1737: John Bevis records the first his- torically observed Mercury occul- tation by Venus (28.5.1737) Next: 2133. 1800: First observation of surface features by Johann Schroeter. 1881: First surface map of mercury by Giovanni Schiaparelli.

History of Mercury observation

~ 1930: Mercury’s orbit irregularities are explained by GRT! ~ 1960: Discovery of anomalous tidal locking of orbital period to rotational period by radio observations 1965: Precise measurement of the planet’s orbital period. Guiseppe (Bepi) Colombo suggests an anomalous resonant tidal locking with a 3:2 ratio, i.e. Mercury rotates three times for every two revolutions round the sun. 1974: Until 1975, Mariner 10 passes Mer- cury 3 times. Flight plan suggested by Bepi Colombo included Venus- Swing-Bys. Unexpectedly, the revolu- tion period of Mariner 10 in this or- bit was exactly twice the revolution period of Mercury, so that only ~45 %

  • f mercury could be cartographed.

2000: Lucky imaging observations at Mount Wilson reveal details

  • f the uncartographed region. Observation with x-ray

satellites.

Mercury mass

  • Terrestrial planet bulk composition

derives from equilibrium condensation from the solar nebula.

  • Not for Mercury – unpredicted

large uncompressed density

  • Large core – thin mantle – high Fe

content, observations imply low Fe.

  • Possibilities

1. Selective accretion

  • 2. Post Accretion

Vaporisation

  • 3. Massive Impact

Anomal density! Inhomogeneous mass distribution (spin-orbit resonance)!
